Winter Tires and a loving God

I know I have promised over and over that I will post my thoughts about moving to Saskatoon and how we made it here and all that God did to get us here, and he did many a miracle, but I am just having such a hard time putting it all down in words, so it will have to continue to wait.

I do want to share a little 'God moment' that happened to us last week. Shortly after we moved to Saskatoon we realized that we would need to be a two car family, so we got on Kijiji and began looking for a car, well we ended up purchasing a 28 year old Volvo station wagon, not the best car in the world but the price was right. Well we hadn't had the car for long when a couple in the church saw Nathan getting into the car and asked where we bought it and how long we had had it for and as it turns out it had been their car, and they had sold it to the man we had gotten it from. So that is a fun story, but it gets better.

With the fall of the first big snow we quickly realized that the Volvo would need new winter tires, not an expense we really cared to purchase, but in Saskatoon you NEED winter tires. Before we even had a chance to price out new tires I received a phone message from the same gentleman from our church who owned the car before us, letting me know that he had a pair of gently used snow tires that they had purchased for the Volvo when they owned it sitting in storage and that we could have them free of charge if we wanted. A gift we very graciously accepted.

Our loving God once again looked after us in a miraculous yet simple way.

God cares about the little things too.
